Chapter 25: How to Kill a Demon
Outside the city of Lingzhou, inside the nameless small temple.
Zhou Ang looked at his senior uncle Zheng Huan with a sluggish expression, and it took a while to come back to his senses, but he looked sad and said, "No, right......? I ......"
On the futon, Zheng Huan stroked his long beard with his hand and said: "I can't help it, and it's not just me and Ao Chun who can't take half a step out of the temple gate, even the things you take from me, whether it's a talisman or something else, as long as you go out of the temple gate, even if you lose your mana." β
"Why, why is this happening?" asked Zhou Ang.
"Heaven is like this!"
"But...... By the way, then how can my master go out?"
Zheng Huan laughed when he heard this, and said, "So he is your master." β
At this time, Zhou Ang really didn't have the heart to fight with his uncle, and as soon as he heard that Uncle Zheng couldn't even get out of the temple gate, he was immediately angry, so he asked: "Then can my master come back in these two days?" I can only hold that monster for three days, and after three days, if my master can't come back......
"How?"
"Huh, how?"
"If your master doesn't come back, will you die?"
"Of course I ...... I ......"
yes, am I going to die?
I'm afraid yes!
The fox demon doesn't know how many grades of the monster it is, according to Uncle Zheng, she can only see it after killing, but don't care how many grades she is, even if it is the lowest level of the ninth grade, she is definitely not an opponent!
It seems that his current "warlock" can be regarded as an entry, of course, it is the ninth grade, but his own nine grades, and the nine grades of monsters, are obviously not on the same level as the combat effectiveness.
Surely death!
Finally retreated from the face of the fox demon, Zhou Ang didn't even dare to go home, and went straight to the south of the city as soon as possible, but what he didn't expect was that his uncle couldn't even get out of the temple gate!
Obviously, all the subtle methods he had thought of on the way to this point suddenly lost the possibility of success!
"Uncle Shi, can you help me write a talisman to catch that fox spirit?" just like you used a talisman to catch a chicken that day......
"Zixiu, your heart is in turmoil!"
"I ......"
Zhou Ang opened his mouth and stammered, and after a long while, he suddenly sighed and fell into despair.
yes, I'm upset. Can it not be messy!
It's a youkai! a powerful youkai who can take his own life with a single move!
And not long ago, she had already sucked herself into a scum once!
As long as he is a normal person, how can he not be afraid in the face of a deadly enemy of this level, and how can he continue to be as calm as water?
So, what to do?
Uncle Shi and Ao Chun can't get out, everything with magic power can't get out of this door, Master can get out, but now he can't be found at all-maybe Uncle Shi can contact him? They are all people with advanced Taoism, there should be a way, right? In an emergency, there should always be a way to contact a piece of jade, pull out a hair and shout Senior Brother, etc., but Uncle Shi's meaning is very clear, they will not interfere.
It doesn't matter whether you can't, or you don't want to, and why you can't or don't want to.
So, what about running?
I still have three days to go, go back today and say that my mother and sister will be moved, pack up my things, and drive away early tomorrow morning, two days later, I should have been able to go out for dozens of miles, if I don't feel sorry for money, I will pursue speed in these two days, I can take a fixed carriage, and it will not be a problem to be a hundred miles away, where will the monster find me when the time comes?
Or...... It's also a good idea to take my mother and sister to this temple to hide for a few days, and then wait for the monster to find me, and then gradually give up, and then leave calmly.
Yes, that's a good idea!
Zhou Ang raised his head and was about to discuss it with his uncle, but before he could open his mouth, he suddenly stopped when he saw Uncle Zheng Huan's calm appearance.
No, I can't run!
Since this is a world with monsters and Taoism, then even if I hide from this one, sooner or later I will meet the next one! At the beginning, I was so eager to worship the "mountain gate", wasn't the purpose to learn the Taoism, in this strange world, to have a real foothold?
Now that I am a disciple of the Mountain Sect, I am learning what I want to learn, and from what I have learned and seen so far, Uncle Zheng has real materials! My own master is almost certainly more powerfulββ I can learn real things by following them!
It is foreseeable that as long as I continue to study, I will definitely be able to defeat that fox demon with my own ability in the future! Even, judging from my recent studies, maybe after a while, even if I can't kill the other party, I will have a certain amount of self-preservation.
So, the idea is right, and the path is right!
The problem is that the time for me to meet the fox demon again is really too early!
But what kind of problem is that?
In the same city, even if you can't meet it at Chen's house, maybe one day you will buy a rice and she will see it! This is definitely not avoidable - no, it is a better situation to see each other face to face like today, at least she already knows that she has discovered herself, so she is not defenseless!
So, she just came a little early.
But this is not entirely unexpected!
This is not an accident.
And I should not let the right path I have embarked on give up halfway because of an unexpected event that is expected to come sooner or later, but only a little earlier!
So...... Anyway, I have to face her!
And I shouldn't have any helpers, but I have to win her!
It's better to kill her!
Otherwise, I'll die!
So...... There's only one problem left!
I, a beginner nine-rank "warlock", haven't learned any real spells yet, and don't know any martial arts, how can I kill a fox demon without any helper?
A fox demon that should be very powerful!
............
Zhou Ang let out a long breath.
When the thinking is smooth, the eyes become firm, and the mood naturally becomes more and more peaceful and calm.
"Uncle Shi, I want to learn how to make talismans now, how long do you think it will take me to learn?"
Zheng Huan was silent.
"Is three days enough?"
Zheng Huan shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not easy." β
"Can you give it a try?"
"You can give it a try. β
"And what if I learn a spell?"
Zheng Huan was silent again.
Zhou Ang looked at him and waited patiently for him to answer.
After a long time, he, Uncle Zheng, sighed and said, "Whether it is a talisman or a spell, it never depends on hard work and hard practice! In addition to the most basic elements, whether you can succeed or not, it always depends on talent and understanding. Therefore, Uncle Shi was unable to answer. β
When Zhou Ang heard this, he immediately raised his head and said excitedly: "Uncle Shi, I have thought about it, I want to learn talisman making and spell casting from you." I'm going to try to see if I have a chance to kill that fox demon myself!"
After a pause, he said, "I really can't learn, I don't have a chance, I'll run away again." β
